Job description

Macquarie Park | Up to $130k inc Super | 2 Days WFH

The Company

Our client is a growing outsourced finance business supporting companies across a broad mix of industries.

Rather than working within one internal finance team, you’ll operate as an extension of multiple businesses, giving you exposure to different entities, systems, industries and accounting environments.

The Role

We are looking for an experienced Accountant who is confident managing multiple businesses and entities at the same time.

This is a hands-on role for someone with strong corporate accounting fundamentals who enjoys variety and can move between different clients, priorities and deadlines.

You’ll take ownership of the day-to-day accounting requirements across your own portfolio of clients.

Key Responsibilities

• Manage accounting requirements across multiple clients and entities.
• Accounts payable and accounts receivable.
• Bank and balance sheet reconciliations.
• General ledger maintenance and account reconciliations.
• Assist with month-end accounting and financial reporting.
• Manage competing deadlines across multiple client accounts.
• Review transactions and resolve accounting discrepancies.
• Work directly with clients on their accounting requirements.
• Maintain accurate financial records and meet agreed deadlines.
• Work across different accounting structures and operating environments.
• Support improvements to accounting processes and systems.

About You

• 5+ years’ accounting experience.
• Strong corporate or operational accounting background.
• Confident across AP, AR, reconciliations and general accounting.
• Experience managing multiple entities, businesses or cost centres.
• Strong MYOB and Xero experience.
• Comfortable juggling multiple deadlines and changing priorities.
• Strong technical accounting fundamentals and attention to detail.
• Able to work autonomously and take ownership of your workload.
• Confident communicating directly with clients.

Highly Regarded Experience within construction, property development or other fast-paced multi-entity environments will be highly regarded.

Why Apply?

• Work across multiple businesses rather than one finance function.
• Exposure to a broad range of industries and accounting structures.
• Genuine ownership of your own client portfolio.
• Build stronger technical and commercial accounting experience.
• 2 days WFH each week.
• Up to $130k inc Super.
